Hi Paul,
It wouldn't surprise me if the maple slab is attenuating some
micro-life in the presentation.
Can you get your paws on a Townshend Audio seismic sink?
Alternatively, I do have a 18x14 Neuance platform in the closet.
You could borrow it if you can't source one elsewhere. I haven't
used it since I went to the GPA Monaco Modular system in 2005.

Hey ae,
That is a very nice gesture. Much appreciated. But, since the Neuance owner has offered a new platform, I think I will snatch that up. Bound to at least retain value.
The Townshend shelves look very nice also - actually this is close to what I originally had in mind re "adding suspension" to the Rega. I see they are not cheap, but if a design like that was cheap, it wouldn't be good. I may give one of those a whirl as well.
A box of sand or sand/lead is great, but not always possible.
One option that might work is large sorbothane feet - I use 2.5" hemispheres for a Thorens 125. They seem to be pretty effective at absorbing low-freq vibrations from the surface they rest on. At least they are a cheap and easy option, so if they don't work, you're not out much. Get 'em on ebay.
